Fresh off their victory at the Women’s Oceania Championships, the Vodafone Fijiana 15s are confident they will pose a strong challenge to the USA this week.

Head Coach Ioan Cunningham says the players are excited to be in the United States and are focused on delivering a solid performance against the hosts, who are currently ranked higher than Fiji in the world rugby standings.

He says the team has adjusted well to the conditions and the players are in high spirits ahead of the match.

The 15th-ranked Vodafone Fijiana 15s will take on the 9th-ranked USA team this Saturday at Audi Field in Washington, D.C. at 6.05am
